10 1) IAS 19 Employee Benefits The amendments to IAS 19 require companies to calculate a net interest amount by applying the discount rate to the net defined benefit liability or asset to replace the interest cost and expected return on plan assets used in the previous IAS 19. In addition, the amendments eliminate the accounting treatment of either the corridor approach or the immediate recognition of actuarial gains and losses in profit or loss when they occur, and instead require companies to recognize all actuarial gains and losses immediately through other comprehensive income. The past service cost, on the other hand, will be expensed immediately when it is incurred and will no longer be amortized over the average period before meeting vesting conditions on a straight-line basis. In addition, the amendments also require a broader disclosure of defined benefit plans. In compliance with the amended standards above, the Group summarized the effect of restatement as follows: Effect on Assets, Liabilities and Equity Before Retrospective Application Adjustments Arising from Initial Application After Retrospective Application 2014 Deferred tax assets $ 882,732 $ 2,441 $ 885,173 Net defined benefit liabilities $ 122,423 $ 14,359 $ 136,782 Retained earnings $ 19,817,858 $ (11,917) $ 19,805,941 Non-controlling interests $ 6,252,898 $ (1) $ 6,252,897 June 30, 2014 Deferred tax assets $ 883,900 $ 2,631 $ 886,531 Deferred tax liabilities $ 2,441,763 $ (13) $ 2,441,750 Net defined benefit liabilities $ 107,704 $ 15,553 $ 123,257 Retained earnings $ 13,052,044 $ (12,909) $ 13,039,135 January 1, 2014 Deferred tax assets $ 924,576 $ 2,738 $ 927,314 Net defined benefit liabilities $ 115,463 $ 16,101 $ 131,564 Retained earnings $ 22,171,132 $ (13,363) $ 22,157,769 Effect on Comprehensive Income Before Retrospective Application Adjustments Arising from Initial Application After Retrospective Application For the three months ended June 30, 2014 Operating costs $ 17,332,519 $ (174) $ 17,332,345 Operating expenses $ 4,239,583 $ (100) $ 4,239,483 Tax expenses $ 888,480 $ 47 $ 888,527 Profit $ 4,267,539 $ 227 $ 4,267,766 Effect on profit attributable to: Owners of parent $ 4,136,910 $ 227 $ 4,137,137 Non-controlling interests 130, ,629 $ 4,267,539 $ 227 $ 4,267,766 (Continued) - 9 -

The items that may be reclassified subsequently to profit or loss include exchange differences on translation, unrealized gains (losses) on available-for-sale financial assets, and the share of other comprehensive income (loss) of associates accounted for using equity method. The adoption of the above amendments will not impact profit, other comprehensive income (loss), and comprehensive income. 3) IFRS 12 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities IFRS 12 integrates all related standards on disclosures requirements for all forms of interests in other entities, including subsidiaries, joint arrangements, associates, and un-consolidated structured entities. For the first-time adoption of the amendments, the Group will provide a wider range of disclosure in the consolidated financial statements. 4) IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement IFRS 13 defines the meaning of fair value and sets the method of calculation and the presentation of measurement of fair value. As the adoption will be postponed until after 2015, the Group does not expect any significant impacts on the consolidated financial condition and performance. b. New standards and interpretations of 2013 IFRSs issued by the IASB but not yet endorsed by the FSC Except for the following description, the Group s assessment of the new standards and interpretations not yet adopted is disclosed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers IFRS 15 establishes the principles that apply to report revenue arising from a contract with a customer. This standard will replace IAS 18 Revenue, IAS 11 Construction Contracts, and related interpretations. When adopting IFRS 15, the Group recognizes revenue by the following steps: 1) Identify the contract with the customer; 2) Identify the performance obligations in the contract; 3) Determine the transaction price; 4) Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and 5) Recognize revenue when the entity satisfies a performance obligation. When IFRS 15 becomes effective, the Group may elect to apply this standard either retrospectively to each period presented or to recognize the accumulated adjustment at the date of initial application. Except for the above impact, as of the date the consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue, the Group is continuously assessing the possible impact that the application of other standards and interpretations will have on the Group s financial position and financial performance, and will disclose the relevant impact when the assessment is completed. 4.

Due to non-proportional investment in momo s capital increase, the percentage of ownership in momo decreased. Despite the reduction in the shareholding in momo, WMT still has over half of the seats on the Board of Directors of momo and maintains control over momo, so momo is included in the consolidated entities. Note 2: Due to non-proportional investment in Asian Crown s and FGE s capital increase in September and October 2014, momo s percentage of ownership in Asian Crown decreased, and investor HK Fubon Multimedia s percentage of ownership in FGE increased.

Subsidiaries excluded from the consolidated financial statements: None. Financial Instruments Derivatives are initially recognized at fair value at the date the derivative contracts are entered into and are subsequently re-measured to their fair value at the end of each reporting period. The resulting gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss immediately unless the derivative is designated and effective as a hedging instrument, in which event the timing of the recognition in profit or loss depends on the nature of the hedge relationship. Derivatives embedded in non-derivative host contracts are treated as separate derivatives when they meet the definition of a derivative, their risks and characteristics are not closely related to those of the host contracts and the contracts are not measured at fair value through profit or loss. Employee Benefits Obligations for contributions to defined contribution pension plans are recognized as an expense in profit or loss in the periods during which services are rendered by employees. The defined benefit costs (including service cost, net interest, and re-measurement) of defined benefit plan use the projected unit credit method for the actuarial valuation. Service cost (including current service cost and past service cost) and net interest on the net defined benefit liability (asset) are recognized under employee benefit expense as they occur. Re-measurement (including actuarial gains and losses, changes in the effect of the asset ceiling, and the return on plan assets, excluding amounts included in net interest) is recognized in other comprehensive income or loss in retained earnings as it occurs, and is not reclassifiable to profit or loss subsequently. Net defined benefit liability (asset) is the deficit (surplus) of defined benefit plans. IAS 19 requires the Group to limit the carrying amount of a net defined benefit asset so that it does not exceed the economic benefits available in the form of refunds from the plan or reductions in future contributions to the plan. Pension cost for an interim period is calculated on a year-to-date basis by using the actuarially determined pension cost rate at the end of the prior fiscal year. Income Tax Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax. The interim-period income tax expense is accrued using the tax rate that would be applicable to expected total annual earnings, that is, the estimated average annual effective income tax rate applied to the profit before tax of the interim-period. 5. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY The same critical accounting judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty have been followed in these consolidated financial statements as were applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended

22 14. ACQUISITION OF SUBSIDIARIES AND NON-CONTROLLING INTERESTS a. Acquisition of subsidiaries TWM obtained control of TNH due to the change in the members on the Board of Directors of TNH through the election held on February 21, TWM s shareholding remained at 49.9%. TNH mainly engages in building and operating Songshan Cultural and Creative Park BOT (Build-Operate-Transfer) Project. 1) Assets acquired and liabilities assumed TNH Current assets Cash and cash equivalents $ 1,193,252 Others 79,777 Non-current assets Service concession 7,460,415 Others 5,656 Current liabilities (647,681) Non-current liabilities Long-term borrowings (3,285,841) Others (1,339,944) $ 3,465,634 The Group s shareholding in TNH was 49.9% before obtaining control of TNH, at which time the book value and fair value were equivalent. Therefore, the gain and loss arising from re-measurement were not significant. 2) Operating influences of combination The Group s share of operating revenue of TNH was $65,512 thousand and $93,773 thousand and the Group s share of the net loss of TNH was $507 thousand and $4,870 thousand, respectively, for the three months ended June 30 and the period from February 21 to June 30, If the business combination had occurred at the beginning of the fiscal year, the pro forma operating revenue and net loss in the Group s consolidated comprehensive income statement would have been $129,949 thousand and $24,066 thousand, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, The aforementioned pro forma revenue and net loss could not be regarded as the actual operating outcome on the basis that the business combination occurred at the beginning of the year and could not be used to predict the future revenue and net loss. b. Transactions with non-controlling interests Due to WMT s disposal of part of its shareholding in momo in February 2014, WMT s shareholding in momo decreased from 50.64% to 49.93%. The transaction was accounted for as an equity transaction as follows: Cash consideration received $ 142,246 Increase in non-controlling interests due to equity transaction involving subsidiaries (120,420) Other adjustments (3,071) Capital surplus - difference between consideration and carrying amount of subsidiaries shares disposed of $ 18,

23 Due to momo s initial public offering, WMT disposed of part of its shareholding in momo and did not participate in momo s public offering in December 2014; therefore, WMT s capital surplus - difference between consideration and carrying amounts of subsidiaries shares disposed of and capital surplus - changes in equity of subsidiaries increased by $67,210 thousand and $576,872 thousand, respectively. Due to non-proportional investment in FGE s increase in capital in September and October 2014, momo s capital surplus - changes in equity of subsidiaries increased by $74,034 thousand. As the aforementioned transactions did not result in any change of the Group s control over momo and FGE, they were accounted for as equity transactions. 15.

26 b. Customer relationship, trademarks, and operating rights The Group measures the fair value of the acquired assets when acquisition occurs, and identifies the fair value and amortization periods of the intangible assets which conform to materiality and related standards. Although some of the intangible assets such as operating rights and trademarks have a legal useful life, which can be extended, the Group regards these assets as intangible assets with indefinite useful life. 1) On April 17, 2007, TFN, one of TWM s wholly-owned subsidiaries, acquired more than 50% of the former Taiwan Fixed Network Co., Ltd. (the former TFN) through a public tender offer. TWM divided the former TFN and its subsidiaries into two cash-generating units: Fixed network service and cable television business. Accordingly, customer relationship and operating rights are identified as major intangible assets. 2) On September 1, 2010, TFNM, one of TWM s wholly-owned subsidiaries, acquired 55% of TKT. On August 12, 2011, TFNM acquired 45% of TKT. TWM measured the fair value of the acquired assets and viewed TKT s wireless services as one cash-generating unit. Accordingly, trademarks and customer relationship are identified as major intangible assets. 3) On July 13, 2011, WMT, one of TWM s wholly-owned subsidiaries, acquired more than 50% of momo. TWM measured the fair value of the acquired assets and viewed momo s retail business as one cash-generating unit. Accordingly, trademarks are identified as major intangible assets. c. Goodwill The carrying amounts of goodwill allocated to the above units were as follows: 2014 June 30, 2014 Mobile communication service $ 7,238,758 $ 7,238,758 $ 7,238,758 Fixed network service 357, , ,970 Cable television business 3,269,636 3,269,636 3,269,636 Retail business 4,979,566 4,979,566 4,979,566 d. Impairment of assets $ 15,845,930 $ 15,845,930 $ 15,845,930 In conformity with IAS 36 Impairment of Assets, the Group identified mobile communication service, fixed network service, the cable television business, and the retail business as the smallest identifiable units which can generate cash inflows independently. The recoverable amounts of the operating assets and intangible assets were evaluated by business type, and the critical assumptions used for this evaluation were as follows: 1) Mobile communication service a) Assumptions on cash flows The five-year cash flow projections were estimated on the basis of previous experience, actual operating results, and the financial budget

27 b) Assumptions on operating revenues After taking changes in the telecom industry and competitive landscape into consideration, operating revenues were estimated on the basis of the projected changes in subscriber numbers, minutes of incoming and outgoing calls, and average revenue per minute. c) Assumptions on operating costs and expenses The estimates of activation commissions and customer retention costs were based on the new customers obtained and existing customers maintained. The estimates of remaining costs and expenses were based on the cost drivers of each item. d) Assumptions on discount rate For the years ended 2014 and 2013, the discount rate used to calculate the asset recoverable amounts of TWM was 5.56% and 4.68%, respectively. 2) Fixed network service a) Assumptions on cash flows The five-year cash flow projections were made on the basis of previous experience, actual operating results, and the financial budget. b) Assumptions on operating revenues After taking into consideration the changes in the telecom industry and TWM s growth of operations, the operating revenues were estimated based on the demand for the various types of data transmission and broadband volume. c) Assumptions on operating costs and expenses The estimates of operating costs and expenses were based on the cost drivers of each cost and expense items. d) Assumptions on discount rate For the years ended 2014 and 2013, the discount rates were 6.17% and 5.31%. 3) Cable television business a) Assumptions on cash flows The five-year cash flow projections were estimated on the basis of previous experience, actual operating results, and the financial budget. b) Assumptions on operating revenues After taking changes in the cable television industry and competitive landscape into consideration, operating revenues were estimated on the basis of the projected changes in subscriber numbers and average revenue per subscriber

28 c) Assumptions on operating costs and expenses The estimates of cost of commissions, customer service costs, and bill processing costs were based on the projected changes in subscriber numbers. The estimates of remaining costs and expenses were based on the actual costs and expenses as a proportion of operating revenues. d) Assumptions on discount rate The discount rates used to calculate the asset recoverable amounts for each system operator ranged from 4.38% to 4.92% and from 8.28% to 8.38% for the years ended 2014 and 2013, respectively. 4) Retail business a) Assumptions on cash flows The five-year cash flow projections were estimated on the basis of previous experience, actual operating results, and the financial budget. b) Assumptions on operating revenues After taking into consideration the changes in the retail business industry and competitiveness of the market, the operating revenues were estimated based on the classification and the average price of commodities, and the degree of the contribution of the customers. c) Assumptions on operating costs and expenses The costs and expenses were based on the actual costs and expenses as a proportion of operating revenues. d) Assumptions on discount rate For the years ended 2014 and 2013, the discount rates in calculating the asset recoverable amounts were 15.55% and 7.29%, respectively. Based on the key assumptions of each cash-generating unit, the Group s management believes that the carrying amounts of these operating assets and intangible assets will not exceed their recoverable amounts even if there are any reasonable changes in the critical assumptions used to estimate recoverable amounts. Thus, there was no impairment of intangible assets for the years ended 2014 and 2013, and no significant evidence indicating impairment of intangible assets as of. 18.
